Swara Bhasker, Prakash Raj & More Celebs Condemn UP Teacher Asking Class To Slap Muslim Student
Celebrities condemn the horrific incident where a Uttar Pradesh teacher is seen commanding the class to hit a Muslim student.
Where the country is dealing with enough communal tensions, one more incident has come to the forefront. In a shocking incident coming from Neha Public School of UP¡¯s Muzaffarnagar, a teacher named Tripta Tyagi is seen encouraging young kids to slap a ¡®Mohammedan¡¯ classmate.
When one student couldn¡¯t hit the boy hard enough, Tyagi called another student who could thrash him red and blue.
The young boy cries inconsolably in the viral video as a venomous mind operates a shameful activity. This heart-wrenching incident has outraged the country and has made the internet demand justice for the kid. Debates around instilling such communal hatred among young kids are also taking place.
Condemning the act, several celebrities have now echoed similar sentiments and have demanded rightful action.

Then take your shock and stuff it up some place in the rear. You don¡¯t get to virtue signal today!¡±

Rahul Gandhi tweeted, ¡°Sowing the poison of discrimination in the minds of innocent children, turning a holy place like school into a marketplace of hatred ¨C nothing worse a teacher can do for the country. This is the same kerosene spread by the BJP which has set every corner of India on fire. Children are the future of India - do not hate them, we all have to teach love together.¡±
